Taking photos from iPod onto computer

How do I do it? I have about 96 photos on my ipod. I just reformatted my computer and I now want to take all the photos from my iPod and put them onto my laptop. I've looked at the guides and it really didn't tell me much. Can someone please explain?

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
If you chose to copy full resolution versions, then you can easily get them.
Connect your iPod to the computer. Then open My Computer. Double click the drive representing the iPod. Open the photos folder. They should be there.
If not, you have to use a program like this...

You could search the internet via Google for some more options.

Taking photos from ipod to computer

i put some photos on my ipod from my friends computer and i couldnt figure out how to put them on my computer! so i was just wondering if anyone could tell my how if possible!

Well, as with any files from an ipod, transferring back to your computer isn't a feature you can process through itunes.
What I suggest, is open up your ipod as if you would open up your local disk drive (through my computer or explorer or what not), make sure to "show hidden files" and peruse through there for a "picture" folder
you should be able to transfer those pictures back that way, as they should be stored on there as they would be a thumb drive

Transfering photos from ipod to computer?

Hello!
i used to sync my photos in ipod with my computer. But my computer crashed and i had to change a new computer.
Then, i realised that i can't transfer the photos that are already in my ipod to my new computer. The photos in ipod are in a file format that can't be opened (photo database).
Does that mean that my photos are stuck in the ipod forever? i can't view them with the computer and i can't sync photos with the new computer as i was warned that the old photos in my ipod will be deleted.
Can anyone help? Thanks!

Hi, thanks for replying my question!
i saw in a post about "crashed computer" and found out that someone downloaded an application from http://www.mediafour.com/products/xplaypb/ and managed to transfer photos from ipod to computer. i downloaded it, but i still do not know how to do it.. sigh

How do you transfer photos from ipod to computer?

how do you transfer photos from ipod to computer?

See here for photos taken with the iPod: iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
If these were photos that you synced to the device via iTunes, then you'll need to download third party software to help get them off your iPod.

How do you copy photos from ipod to computer?

We had photos on an external drive which we copied to the IPOD; the drive
is no good and we want to know if we can extract the photos from the IPOD
itself back to the C drive on the computer? I saw a support explanation of
how to do it with the music, but not the photos.
Thanks

Trying to download photos from Dropbox onto computer, but each time it says Decompression Failed. Can anyone help?

I am trying to download photos from Dropbox onto my computer. Each I time I attempt this, it just says Decompression Failed often after 1 hour of downloading. Can anyone assist me? I am not hugely technical!

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.

Photos from iPod on Computer

Hi everyone,
I´m having problems getting my pictures from my iPod onto my computer! Is it possible to get them back? Or will I loose them forever if I update my iPod nano?
Because I have pics on my iPod which I don´t have on my computer or anywhere else and I don´t want to loose them!
I hope you can help me?

If you copied photos to your iPod using the full resolution option, enable disk use, open your iPod in "my computer" in Windows or Finder on a Mac, open the photos folder then open the "full resolution" folder and drag the photos out of that folder to your desktop. For enabling disk use look here.
Disk Use.
If you only copied the photos as thumbnails, you can't do this so you'll need a program such as this one.
CopyTrans Photo
Photos as thumbnails won't be of the original quality when copied back to your computer.

Photos from ipod to computer - thumbs?

i am trying not to panic... i transferred photos from my recent trip to a laptop, then onto my ipod...now i want to get them on my desktop as they've been deleted from the laptop. in using as external disc, drap and drop photo folder to desktop... the files are "Thumbs" - .ithmb files... please tell me they are not compressed thumbnails only... i see the files are rather large. but i can't open them with anything on my windows system. help?

i am answering my own question! thru another thread, i was able to find what i needed to know so i am posting the info here.
to be able to get full res files onto the ipod, you have to enable transfer of the jpegs in your settings when you upload the pic files. otherwise, the ipod just creates thumbnails to fit the ipod.

Trying to move photos from ipod to computer

Can anyone help me? I'm trying to move photos from my ipod to my computer. I had to have my hard drive replaced last week. I was able to get my songs back onto my computer but I'm trying to figure out how to move my photos. Anyone know?
Thanks--
Susan

Susan, had you checked "Include Originals" in the iPod preferences via iTunes?
If not, you'll only have very small thumbnails on your iPod and there is no straightforward way to recover these. (You won't be satisfied with their quality anyway as they are really small, downscaled versions.)
Don't you have any other backup (CD/DVD, .Mac, external harddrive)?
If you did opt to include the original pictures on the iPod you'll stilll have to enable "Disc use" of you iPod to access the iPod's content via the Finder.
Alexander.

Getting Photos from iPod on computer

We bought TWO new iPods 5th Gen. 60 GB. Of course for the music options but also for the photo options, because one of us is a 'heavy' digital photographer, especially on holidays. We THOUGHT (reading about promised options by Apple!) we could put photos on the iPod (with the connector), look at them, delete the ones we don't like directly from the iPod and once home export the photos from the iPod to the hard disk of our computer to do some 'Photoshopping'.....
Nada, nothing, not possible!!!
I/we are furious because we spent a lot of money but can't use the iPod like any ordinary Memory Thing.
Apple people admit this is a:
'NOT-SO-RIGHT-THING-AND-HOPE-THE-COMPANY-WORKS-ON-SOME-SOFTWARE-TO-SOLVE-THIS-PR OBLEM'!!!
We feel being cheated!
I'm going to bring this problem (false info about possibilities of an iPod) into the attention of all consumer organisations/TV-programs/newspapers in The Netherlands!
IS THERE ANYONE WHO HAS FOUND A WAY TO DO WHAT WE WANT:
1:Delete (bad)photos directly from the iPod without the
iPod being connected to a computer.
2:Export photos from the iPod to the computer.
3:Do 1&2 and be able to see the photos on the iPod.
We would be very grateful to the one who can help out.

In iTunes there is an option to open the iPod as a hardrive. Then you can transfer photos to your computer. See also this which tells you what to do: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301059
There is no way to delete photos from your iPod without connecting it first.

Syncing photos from ipod to computer

I know that you can add photos from the pc to the ipod...but what about the opposite, adding photos TO pc from your ipod? I couldn't figure out how to do that help!
This is an ipod touch 4g btw.

This is not working for me. What I'm doing is opening the iPod touch device as if it was a hard disk, navigating over to the pictures and videos my kids have taken, selected all 10 pictures and two videos, copied them, and tried to paste them into a directory on the computer hard disk.
Each time, I get the same thing, Windows Explorer crashes.
I have the latest iPod touch drivers, the latest version of iTunes (yes, 64-bit).
Could it be that the drivers aren't compatible with 64-bit?
